Squirrel Point Light, Wooden lighthouse in Arrowsic, United States
The octagonal wooden tower stands 7.5 meters tall with a gabled sound signal chamber attached to one side of the structure.
The lighthouse was constructed in 1898 as part of a major upgrade to improve navigation along the Kennebec River shipping route.
The site holds significance as one of four lighthouses built simultaneously to guide vessels through the challenging waters of the Kennebec River.
The lighthouse features a 250mm lens that provides navigation assistance with a visibility range of 8 nautical miles for white light signals.
The structure includes an iron railing and wooden bracketed gallery surrounding the lantern house, topped by a distinctive ventilator.
